remote: fix a leak in query_matches_negative_refspec

In c0192df (refspec: add support for negative refspecs, 2020-09-30)
query_matches_negative_refspec() was introduced.

The function was implemented as a two-loop process, where the former
loop accumulates and the latter evaluates.  To accumulate, a string_list
is used.

Within the first loop, there are three cases where a string is added to
the string_list.  Two of them add strings that do not need to be
freed.  But in the third case, the string added is returned by
match_name_with_pattern(), which needs to be freed.

The string_list is initialized with STRING_LIST_INIT_NODUP, i.e.  when
cleared, the strings added are not freed.  Therefore, the string
returned by match_name_with_pattern() is not freed, so we have a leak.

   $ git branch --track bar local/foo

An interesting point to note is that while string_list_append() is used
in the first two cases described, string_list_append_nodup() is used in
the third.  This seems to indicate an intention to delegate the
responsibility for freeing the string, to the string_list.  As if the
string_list had been initialized with STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP, i.e.  the
strings are strdup()'d when added (except if the "_nodup" API is used)
and freed when cleared.

Switching to STRING_LIST_INIT_DUP fixes the leak and probably is what we
wanted to do originally.  Let's do it.
